Xiao Cai! " Mr. Dan didn't wait for Cai Jingyao to finish speaking and interrupted her. His tone was still calm and collected. "Why are you suddenly so distant with me? Why do you keep calling me 'you'?"
Mr. Dan's voice carried a hint of a smile, but it was very oppressive.
Cai Jingyao lowered her head, her hands, which were painted with nude-colored nail polish, tightly gripping the napkin. She bit her lip and didn't say a word.
Seeing that Cai Jingyao wasn't speaking, Mr. Dan didn't force her. He picked up his phone and stuffed it into his suit pocket. "Let's go. I'll send you back."
"There's no need, Mr. Dan!" Cai Jingyao quickly waved her hand. She hurriedly took her shoulder bag from behind and put it on. She stood up and said, "I can take a taxi myself. It's nice to meet you, Mr. Dan, but in the future … in the future …"
As Cai Jingyao spoke, she took a step back, her stiletto heels slanting. If Mr. Dan hadn't grabbed her slender wrist, she would have fallen to the ground in a sorry state.
Cai Jingyao steadied herself with a pale face and immediately retracted her hand from Mr. Dan's grasp. After apologizing, she endured the pain in her ankle and fled in a sorry state with reddened eyes.
Since she knew that Mr. Dan would chase after her, Cai Jingyao put on a good show.
After getting off the cruise ship, Cai Jingyao gritted her teeth and endured the intense pain in her ankle. She stepped on her high heels and limped forward …
At this hour, it was a little dangerous for Cai Jingyao to walk alone on this road. She saw a sports car speeding past her and slowed down beside her. The person in the car whistled at her.
Cai Jingyao held the phone in her hand and put it by her ear as if she was making a call. "Right … I'm on this bridge. Okay … there's a bench by the side of the road. I'll wait for you here. Right … do you see me?"
As Cai Jingyao spoke, she turned her head to look behind her. Thankfully, there was a car driving over from behind. A few youngsters thought that someone was here to pick Cai Jingyao up, so they got bored and drove away!
Cai Jingyao heaved a sigh of relief. Enduring the intense pain in her ankle, she sat down on the bench and took off her high heels. Looking at her swollen ankle, she rubbed her temples. The effects of the red wine she had just drunk seemed to have returned.
Two headlights shone towards her. Cai Jingyao subconsciously turned her head and used her hand to block the light. The sound of the wheels told Cai Jingyao that the car had slowed down and stopped beside her.
Cai Jingyao knew that it was Mr. Dan's car, but she still pretended to be alarmed. She immediately picked up her phone and pretended to make a call …
"Yes, I'm here. Can you see me?" Cai Jingyao stood up, clutching her bag tightly in her hand. Her voice was trembling nervously.
The door to the driver's seat opened, and Mr. Dan got out.
Cai Jingyao's throat moved, and her tears fell down like pearls from a broken necklace. The phone that she had placed beside her ear, which she hadn't dialed yet, also slid down her hand.
Just as Cai Jingyao was about to bend down to pick up her phone, Mr. Dan had already picked up Cai Jingyao's phone record. The most recent call was made when he went to pick Cai Jingyao up for dinner!
Mr. Dan recalled that when he was in the car, he had seen a sports car slowly stop beside Cai Jingyao. Cai Jingyao had started making a phone call. Later, when his car stopped, Cai Jingyao had pretended to make a phone call. He had to admit that this young lady was quite smart.
Returning the phone to Cai Jingyao, he looked at the woman in front of him with both hands in his pockets and asked, "Why did you run so fast? Am I a tiger that eats people?! "
Cai Jingyao bit her lip in silence.

Tears streamed down her cheeks …
When Mr. Dan saw Cai Jingyao take off her high heels, he frowned. He helped Cai Jingyao sit down on the bench and squatted down.
Cai Jingyao subconsciously shrank her leg back, but Mr. Dan grabbed her calf and carefully sized up her swollen ankle.
"I'm fine …" Cai Jingyao's voice was nasal.
"It's already swollen and you're still trying to act tough and say you're fine?!" Without saying a word, Mr. Dan carried Cai Jingyao and placed her in the front passenger seat. He fastened her seatbelt and took her to the hospital.
Fortunately, Cai Jingyao didn't injure her bones. She only sprained her ankle.
After leaving the hospital, Mr. Dan sent Cai Jingyao to her house and asked, "Is there anyone at home? Can they come down and pick you up? If there's no one, I'll send you up!"
"No need! I can go up myself! "Cai Jingyao unbuckled her seatbelt and tried to force herself to leave.
"Trying to be brave again?" Mr. Dan frowned.
Cai Jingyao struggled to pull her wrist out of Mr. Dan's grasp like a frightened deer, tears streaming down her cheeks again.
Mr. Dan felt a little upset at Cai Jingyao's tears. His brows furrowed even more. "Did I offend you in any way tonight? Why are you so afraid of coming into contact with me? "
Cai Jingyao's tears fell even harder when she heard this. She bit her lip for a long time before saying, "I'm very sorry, Mr. Dan …"
"Sorry for what?" Mr. Dan asked patiently.
"I … I didn't know you were married." Cai Jingyao carefully looked at the wedding ring on Mr. Dan's ring finger.
Mr. Dan was slightly stunned.
Cai Jingyao suddenly covered her face and cried. "Mr. Dan, please don't treat me so well anymore. You're married … I … I can't like you! I can't like you … "
Mr. Dan's lips parted slightly as he looked at Cai Jingyao's thin shoulders.
In Mr. Dan's eyes, Cai Jingyao was a talkative, positive, and happy young lady.
So, was she sad because she knew that she liked him, who was married, and wanted to avoid him? Did the fact that he was married hurt her?
Mr. Dan didn't know how to comfort Cai Jingyao. He frowned and reached out his hand … but he hesitated to touch this girl who had her own values.
"I'm sorry!" After apologizing, Cai Jingyao pushed open the door and got out of the car. She endured the pain in her ankle and limped towards the entrance of the building. She didn't even take her bag.
Seeing Cai Jingyao enter the building, Mr. Dan retracted his gaze and noticed Cai Jingyao's bag in the front passenger seat.
Sighing, Mr. Dan picked up the bag in the front passenger seat and entered the building.
Mr. Dan, who didn't know which floor Cai Jingyao lived on, accurately knew which floor Cai Jingyao was on based on the floor the elevator stopped at.
After coming out of the elevator, Mr. Dan saw Cai Jingyao squatting at the door, hugging her knees. She looked pitiful like an abandoned puppy, making one feel pity for her.
Mr. Dan frowned and walked towards Cai Jingyao. He bent down and extended his hand to Cai Jingyao. "Get up …"
Cai Jingyao looked at Mr. Dan in disbelief. "How … how did you know which floor I live on?"
Mr. Dan pulled Cai Jingyao up from the ground. When he saw the young lady's eyes were red from crying, and her hair was stuck to her fair and clean face, he felt pity for her.
